DAIS: Daeridanii's Additional Interesting Ships

A plugin for the open-source space game Endless Sky, adding a collection of fully-modeled ships, many in the design family of an existing vessel or group of vessels. The goal is for these to slot in seamlessly as part of a sort of "vanilla-plus" experience, adding diversity and interest to shipyards and fleets throughout the galaxy without changing up game balance too drastically.

Current Additions

• Light Warships
  • Lindwurm: Fast and fanciful, a smaller sibling of the Lionheart Corvette.
  • Hydrargyrum: A heavier successor to the Megaparsec Quicksilver with a greater armament.
  • Rime Branch: A light warship for the Wanderers. (Wanderer Military License)
• Medium Warships
  • Erinys: A medium warship made by Southbound Shipyards for the Free Worlds to fight alongside their larger Dreadnought. (Militia License)
  • Hekla (Vaba): An medium warship built on Thule, the design of which diverged from the mainstream a long time ago.
• Heavy Warships
  • Moonbeam: The Falcon of yesteryear, a fast heavy warship in the style of the CCOR-era ships. (Plus a Marauder-esque variant!)
  • Catatumbo: A heavy warship for the Wanderers, the weapons-focused sibling to the Derecho and Hurricane. (Wanderer Military License)
• Utility Craft
  • Hekla (Dora): An drone carrier built on Thule, the design of which diverged from the mainstream a long time ago.
  • Reflection: Rough and tough, a hefty tugboat built to shift large masses. (Plus a Marauder variant!)

Marauders

Currently, both the Moonbeam and Reflection have Marauder-style variants; performance-enhanced versions modified by pirate warlords. Rather than using the vanilla system for acquiring Marauders, these can be obtained once as unique ships through missions under certain conditions.

Other Info

All-content plugin support for testing and cheating is provided through Omnis.

Up to date with v0.10.16 of Endless Sky.
